I had Falken 245/30 and 275/30 with H&R and rubbed. I had to run neg camber around -2.3 or so. and shave bumper bracket down to almost nothing. Then I didnt rub in rear but rubbed in front every great once in a while on recoil from speed bumps and such. It is a very nice set up once its dialed in.

So if I should be concerned about any rubbing would it be from upfront... also my local vossen retailer recommends 245/35 vs Diego's 30, maybe the 30 will help with clearance. Just want to get my shate right! hehe

So did you end up having to run 2.3 all around... How's tire wear with that much camber...

Uneven tire wear was not bad at all...I run -2.5 right now and no big deal.
Not in front. I dont remember what my front specs were. Here are some pics of the rear with Falken 275/30 on H and R drop.

Finally!
Finally I can post here with my new shoes. Well worth the wait for CV3's 20/45 245/35/20F 275/30/20R combo. Still have to wait for my black lugs as surprise surprise they are backordered Just have to complete the Eibach drop in the rear.
Now my G really needs a good detail and paint correction
